Hi all,

After a few false starts I am finally (I think) going to send my Dell 486
out to grass, its given good service and I'll find a use for it...

Not so long ago my mind was set on machine built up around a Gigabyte HX
board and P166'ish however this never got any further that good intentions.
I'm now looking at the following:-

  Gigabyte TX board with a K6-200 or 233

However I notice Gigabyte now have a HX board that supports the K6-233 (the
HX-2) and I wonder if this might be a better board over the TX ?

TX2's & 3's were going for about 89GBP ($145) at the last local Computer
Market. I didn't see any HX2's.

Do either of the above sound like a good start or should I consider another
m/b....any comments would be most welcome and very much appreciated.

All the best
